Child Protective Services laws and agencies are abusive to families and children. This site provides support and information to parents falsely accused of child abuse by Child Protective Services.
FightCPS does not advocate or condone violence or illiegal activities of any kind.
FightCPS is intended to help people learn enough about the law to be able to successfully defend themselves and their families against false accusations using legal documents and strategies that put parents in a stronger position when they go back to court.
For more information, see the FAQ.
Child Protective Services, CPS, has devastated and destroyed hundreds of thousands of families in America during the last thirty years leaving a trail of broken hearts, broken dreams, and shattered childhoods.
Rather than helping families, government agents have used unconstitutional laws in Juvenile Court to rip children away from their loving parents, break asunder God-given, natural, parent-child bonds, and adopt the children of the grieving out to others who profit financially with large monthly adoption subsidy payments.
Child Protective Services must be stopped! The law that started this, CAPTA, must be repealed. We must work tirelessly to inform the public of this very dangerous travesty of justice. We must keep faith knowing that if there is a God, there is an answer and a way to end this heartache.
Child Protective Services Agents - please come to your senses! Family destruction on false or trivial grounds is wrong, reprehensible, and inhumane.
Fosterers - be aware that for the money you get you are holding much-loved children away from their grieving families while the parents are forced to perform a service plan that is anything but a service to them. I call this hostage holding for the government. This is not kindness - to help misguided government agents destroy family relationships and break loving bonds.
CPS workers and fosterers - I ask that you now let the children of the innocent return to their homes where they are truly valued, adored, and loved by the parents God gave them.
Family rights are God-given rights. And they should not be ignored or postponed. Every moment these loving parents and children spend separated from one another is a torment beyond what anyone should ever have to bear.
It is unworthy of human dignity to allow this terrorism and torture of families to go on without saying something, speaking out, and trying to make a change.
Site mission: To provide information and support for families attacked by Child Protective Services and child welfare agents, especially those families facing false or trivial accusations of child abuse or neglect; and for researchers working to protect natural family rights.

Fighting Child Protective Services False Accusations
November 8, 2008
A foster parent in Detroit, Michigan has been arrested for allegedly molesting two young girls, ages 10 and 12. Robert Carl Davids, 55, may face life in prison for raping the two children who were in his home as foster children.
Their mother lost custody of her five children in 2006 due to a drug raid, but she’s been working on her reunification plan and hopes to get her children back on December 4.
In the meantime she’s been telling Michigan DHS caseworkers that her children were in danger. According to a Detroit News article, she said, “I was making complaints in February 2007 almost every day about the home . . . and I felt no one was taking me seriously.” She thought her daughters were being ‘beaten and sexually assaulted’.

CPS in any county should be investigated whenever they lie.
They do lie and there is even proof. The attorneys say that in MIchigan you cannot file a federal law suit because CPS will always win. THere is no cases in Michigan of winning a federal lawsuit. The CPS in Michigan is so powerful that they can say or do anything they like – even lie.
They do not have to tell the truth in any court or administrative hearing. They even refuse the documents to prove that they poorly investigated.
They do not have to find out the truth or tell the truth because there is no consequencies for them.
It is a shame that one organization thinks that they are above the law.
No one should be above the law and allow to break the law.
It is a shame that no senator takes an action and audit the CPS/DHS.
THey would find too many errors in their cases and too many broken familes. It is easier to pretend nothing like this ever happens.

I would also like to point out that the CPS/DHS do not follow their own guidelines and procedures. They do not follow the timelines that they have. For example, in MIchigan, the administrative judge is supposed to answer within 30-60 days. In reality, it takes over 60 days and closer to 3 months before you hear anything!
The CPS supervisor do not answer to expungement letters – at all! If they happen to answer, it will take about 3 months before you get any answer.
The CPS supervisor will tell your attorney that your attorney is not allowed to have any documents or the file. That denial is sent to my attorney in a letter.
The CPS supervisor also claims that
she has sent all the material… however, they will present different documents as evidence in the administrative hearing – some that you have never seen or heard – nor has your attorney.
Also the CPS/DHS mail the letters to a wrong address so that you would not even get the hearing time. I had this happen twice now. I’ve never lived in that address and I don’t even know where it is.
The CPS/DHS also sends mail to persons who are NOT in the registry!!! They will set up an administrative hearing for them – and these persons have not even requested for hearing nor do they need any hearing because they are not in the registry!
Then you have to formally cancel that appointment – otherwise there will be legal procedures against you if you don’t.
These are just a few examples that CPS/DHS does in Michigan.
Comment by Michiganian — February 17, 2009 @ 10:11 am
THe CPS/DHS in MIchigan also interviews you with a different language than what is your own family language. When you request for interpreter they deny and/or ignore the request. When you tell the case worker that you do not understand what they say, they tell you that you lie!
The case worker will write in their investigative report that you appeared to be lying.
Make sure you will get a case worker that speaks your own language – also make sure that she/he will understand ENGLISH!
Comment by Michiganian — February 17, 2009 @ 10:17 am
DCFS has done nothing except collect money and send my daughter to 5 homes all who spanked my child but are they being prosecuted and denied rights after spanking my child -??? No they adopt another child and spank them or abuse them because the state said it is ok. Who proscutes the abusive caretakers when the mother cant even see her child or get a call.
Comment by jan mathews — February 17, 2009 @ 1:12 pm

Comment by pamela — February 27, 2009 @ 6:07 am
A question for anyone who can answer: I have been waiting for the result of an adminstrative hearing for over 3 months now in Michigan.
How long does it usually take?
What can I do now if the CPS/DHS takes several months to answer?
My attorney said that there is nothing to do, and that we just have to wait.
Is there any timeline for the CPS/DHS to answer? Can they just drag their feet for months before giving an answer?

My soon to be step children live with thier mother. My fiance’ is a huge part of thier lives. The mother lives with her mom in a trailer home. She has had no job and has not tried to get one. She has let thier medical problems go so bad that literally we had taken them 12 times to the doctors for virus’ and inffections between nov-end of dec. She was found guilty of neglect and abuse and all they did was give her parenting classes. Now the oldest 3 comes home with finger print bruises all over his back. So off course they screw over the dad when he is actually taking care of him just because she is the mother. The good old children are better off with thier mother thing. And the whole dead beat dad thing is punishing the good ones. She also has a 6mth old daughter who she has tried to ween off formula at 3mths old. Now the girl has food allergies now a 6mths she is trying to give her milk against the doctors orders.

Swift, get as much on-paper evidence as you can, and take this matter to family court, not to CPS. CPS is too unpredictable and really isn’t there to solve custody problems between divorced parents. You should document everything and file for a change of custody in family court. Some people say that CPS harms every family it touches. Often when people report the other parent to CPS, the children end up in foster homes and are adopted out to strangers and lost forever. Family court is a much better option.

I live in flint and i told these people over and over again that my child was being beating and they done nothing just saying well will check
Comment by Keonah — August 28, 2009 @ 6:31 pm
i wish the state of michigan was hit with a smart bomb, because they are idiots! my daughter and husband have been charged in civil court because the officer had absolutely no evidence for criminal charges. Every vendor, i.e. psychologists, parenting counselors, even the cps worker, states there is and has not been any child abuse or neglect. she has not been found guilty nor not guilty however, she is jumping through hoops to make them, the prosecuting attorney understand that they did not do what they are accused of. for thirty days, they were watched and visited by cps and a parenting counselor, the p.a. says that they could be “faking” their behavior and requested an additional three months of b.s. to see what really goes on, are you kidding me? wtf????/ can we not sue these b–stards? at what point will we as citizens stand up for our constitutional rights? when are we going to say hell no? my daughter has not been found guilty, but yet they are making her comply with things normally left for those found guilty. i’;m ready, i’m willing, and i want to do to them what they falsely accused my daughter of doing. pleeease give me five minutes with that battle axe who is continuing these sick, sick, accusations.
Comment by grneweene — September 2, 2009 @ 8:12 am
I don’t see how the best interest of the child is concerned when you have to wait for the result of the administrative hearing for over 7 months. That’s what they do in Michigan now… meanwhile the child is with a mother who is a drug dealer and drunk…
